We would also recommend that you have that tire checked to see if it needs
repairing. All wheels and tires normally lose 1 lb. of air pressure per month.
The reason these safety caps were developed is two fold; one, is to give drivers
a visual clue when their tires needed air and the second is that driving on
under-inflated tires is dangerous and costly! How dangerous, so dangerous that
by the year 2007 all new vehicles produced here in America will all have tire
pressure monitoring systems installed as standard equipment. Remember all the
news about Firestone tires and suv roll-overs? Well, when the Firestone
engineers reviewed all of those cases they noted that in each case the vehicles
tires were under-inflated. Under-inflated tires are dangerous and costly. If you
drive on wet roads with under inflated tires your vehicle has a 400% chance of
hydro-planning or skiing across the roadway surface meaning you loose traction
to the road surface and in plane english you loose control of your motor
vehicle. Driving on under inflated tires also reduce the miles you get on a
gallon of gas not to mention that driving on under inflated tires will reduce
the life of the tire or simply destroy it.
When surveyed most drivers responded by saying they think they are riding on their tires but in reality your really riding on a cushion of air inside your tires. Air is the only substance that keeps the tires round and rolling that's why it is so important to properly maintain your vehicles tire pressure.
